Sex and the City: Games People Play (1999)
Not One of My Favorite Episodes
Carrie is forced to take her 'Big' problems to a shrink after the gals are tired of listening to her incessant break-up woes. I love this show but this episode was so irritating. Would a supposedly renowned therapist have their relationship-challenged patients coming and going through the same exit/entrance if they really cared about maintaining a mentally healthy atmosphere? The writers made the therapist seem like a talking head who incorrectly repeated back to Carrie "You were playing all these games." Carrie clearly said "HE was playing all these games." Viewers are left thinking therapy may not be tried and true if this is how therapists represent themselves. It was such a ridiculous portrayal of relationship counseling that whenever this episode comes on, I usually change channels except to watch the beautiful JB Jovi, but only on mute.
Leona Helmsley: The Queen of Mean (1990)
Mskinne2 is right!!!
this was definitely one of the better miniseries that i have seen. even with Susan P's terrible facial features, i agree with the other poster that couldn't believe the horrible dentures or whatever they had to do to Susan's face to get it looking like Leona's. i think they could have just left her alone and she would have still been able to depict Leona just fine. thats the eighties for you( i know, i know, its made in 1990 but technically thats still eighties backlash and they always tried to be as right on as they could) well thats what i think, thank you for reading. I just love IMD and don't know what I would do without it, do you?
